Eva Vertes -- only 19 when she gave this talk -- discusses her journey toward studying medicine and her drive to understand the roots of cancer and Alzheimer’s.

When cancer cells are closely packed together in a tumor, they're able to communicate with each other and coordinate their movement throughout the body. What if we could interrupt this process? In this accessible talk about cutting-edge...

Cancer usually begins with one tumor in a specific area of the body. But if the tumor is not removed, cancer has the ability to spread to nearby organs as well as places far away from the origin, like the brain. How does cancer move to...

El cáncer se lleva más vidas al año que ninguna otra enfermedad y toma muchas formas, como el cáncer de pulmón, el cáncer intestinal y el cáncer de mama. ¿Por qué el cáncer es tan letal y cómo se trata?

The heart is practically immune to getting cancer. 2 in 100,000 of those who have cancer are those with a primary cancer of the heart. That is an astonishing low number. So, what is so special about the heart that it rarely, if ever,...

Cancers claim more lives every year than any other disease, and come in many forms such as lung cancer, bowl cancer and breast cancer. Why are cancers so deadly and how can we treat them? Biology - Cells And DNA - Learning Points. There...

In this video, we explore BASIC differences between cell growth, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation.

Lesson on interactions between the Ras Raf MAPK and mTOR signaling pathways. Ras Raf MAPK and mTOR pathways have similar but distinct functions within the cell. During cell proliferation and growth, activation of these pathways is...

This lesson explains the Ras Raf MEK ERK signalling pathway, an important mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade, how it is regulated, and why it is important in human pathologies such as cancer.

Researchers claim that a new MRI contrast agent could be a “game changer” for the early detection of metastasizing cancers, especially liver cancer. <br/>

In this video, we discuss the difference between proto-oncogene and oncogene AND the meaning of tumor suppressor genes. We also explore how dysfunction in any of these can lead to cancer.

Maria is a biochemist from Puerto Rico! Actually technically she is both a biochemist and a pharmacist, since she has a dual degree called a Pharm.D-PhD. Her research centers around metastatic breast cancer, so let's check out precisely...
